In Shakespeare’s King Lear he argues that those in possession of wealth are invincible to the “lance of justice”.

First of all‚ it is important to know a brief history of King Lear. He is an aging man who is loyal and a father that is loving to his daughters. Lear is identified as very generous especially when he tends to give away most of his responsibilities as a king to his daughters.
